."The Scrapping Sky Pilot" chronicles the early life of the Rev.
J.U. Robins, as he grew up in Port Rowan, a small village on Lake
Erie in southern Ontario and as a young man, taught in Detroit.
Then after hearing the "Call" of God headed West to British
Columbia in the late 1800's to open Churches in Rossland, Golden
and serve in Revelstock and Sandon British Columbia. Mission life
was hard, dangerous and had its humourous times. Leaving his true
love thousands of miles behind was one of the hardest things he
did. The man, places and many of the events are true. The people he
interacted with over these years are fictional The source for this
novel comes from a tape recording, made on an old reel to reel tape
that Robins made when he was well into his eighties. I praise God
that he shared such rich stories with the family and now I take
this opportunity to share them with you. May you loose yourself in
a time long ago, in snow storms, lumber camps, fights and a love
that lasted a life time - through the stories of a man who "fought"
for God. Shalom Keith
